Reinvent. Reclaim. Dear NABJ Members: We welcome you to an exciting convention program, and one that will truly help you to Refresh your connection to the NABJ family, Reinvent yourself with new skills and Reclaim your place in the journalism industry. This year’s Tampa Convention appropriately brings us to the sunshine and warmth of Florida to help light our new path in a rapidly evolving fi eld. Our program schedule draws on the fundamental mission set out by the founders—to provide opportunities for black journalists—in a remarkable way. There are an unprecedented number of workshops, seminars and hands-on training sessions in multimedia, digital journalism, public relations, communications, entrepreneurship and much more. The preparation for this convention came at a unique time; newspapers are reforming, identifying new profi t models and redefi ning what it means to be a journalist. With that in mind, NABJ draws on the latest trends, the cutting-edge tools and experts from across the nation to bring their knowledge and practice to our membership. As has been a hallmark of NABJ conventions, top newsmakers like EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson and Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke will also be on hand. As we consider preparing for the future, we must also consider maintaining balance with a healthy mind, body and heart. Too many of our brothers and sisters have passed in the last year from preventable illnesses. This year, we urge you to embrace “Healthy NABJ,” a special exhibit hall area with free health screenings, cooking demonstrations, group exercise sessions, healthy foods and expert advice from healthcare professionals. At this eventful convention, members will have the opportunity to make their voices heard and vote in the NABJ 2009- 11 Board elections. The candidates have been disseminating their messages, participating in Web forums and now it is your turn to put your money where your mouth is and vote online or in person by Friday. As we prepare for a new NABJ Board, we are proud to report that all the pieces are in place for a smooth transition: over the past two years, NABJ has risen from debt and paid all its bills, even attracting top foundation support in a very dif- fi cult climate to bolster our goals to educate, train and provide scholarships to journalists of color. In conclusion, we hope you will scan these pages with enthusiasm and view a fresh, forward-thinking program that takes to heart the best interests of members of the National Association of Black Journalists.

Since 1975, the NABJ has been dedicated to sensitizing the media to the importance of both fairness in press coverage and in the workplace, and to increasing black employment in the media. The NABJ leads an industry-wide dialogue on diversity and promotes cultural consciousness that has led to the expansion of job opportunities for black journalists across the country. It is my honor to extend best wishes for a wonderful convention and I wish your organization much continued success.

    everywomanChangemakers Podcast Transcript How can more diverse newsrooms change the way we see the world for the better? Anna (00:06): Progress. It's in the actions we take right now and in daring to think differently. Each one of us can do something to change things for the better right where we are now, and a thousand small things done with intent adds up to real change. For some people, that initial spark becomes a fire. Anna (00:26): Welcome to the Everywoman Changemakers Podcast. I'm Anna, your host, and every month I'll be talking to inspiring leaders and activists who are changing outlooks, challenging perceptions, and making a difference in the worlds of inclusion, business, the environment, sport, travel, and more. We'll be discussing their work, motivations, and vision. And most importantly, how a revolution of one can lead to a positive, powerful change for the many. Anna (00:53): Today, we're talking to Kelly McBride, Senior Vice President of the Poynter Institute, a nonprofit journalism school and research organisation based in Florida that champions freedom of expression, civil dialogue, and compelling journalism that helps citizens to participate in healthy democracies. She's also the chair of the Craig Newmark Centre for Ethics and Leadership so welcome Kelly. Kelly McBride (01:12): Thanks for having me. Anna (01:13): Let's start with a context question. I mean, when we're talking about media ethics, what are we talking about for the lay person and why is it so important, especially now, I imagine, in an age of digital journalism where it's a free fall, isn't it, anyone can publish anything and have it read by a lot of people and create a lot of influence.

  • Ethics for Digital Journalists
    ETHICS FOR DIGITAL JOURNALISTS The rapid growth of online media has led to new complications in journalism ethics and practice. While traditional ethical principles may not fundamentally change when information is disseminated online, applying them across platforms has become more challenging as new kinds of interactions develop between jour- nalists and audiences. In Ethics for Digital Journalists , Lawrie Zion and David Craig draw together the international expertise and experience of journalists and scholars who have all been part of the process of shaping best practices in digital journalism. Drawing on contemporary events and controversies like the Boston Marathon bombing and the Arab Spring, the authors examine emerging best practices in everything from transparency and verifi cation to aggregation, collaboration, live blogging, tweet- ing, and the challenges of digital narratives. At a time when questions of ethics and practice are challenged and subject to intense debate, this book is designed to provide students and practitioners with the insights and skills to realize their potential as professionals. Lawrie Zion is an Associate Professor of Journalism at La Trobe University in Melbourne, Australia, and editor-in-chief of the online magazine upstart. He has worked as a broadcaster with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and as a fi lm journalist for a range of print publications. He wrote and researched the 2007 documentary The Sounds of Aus , which tells the story of the Australian accent. David Craig is a Professor of Journalism and Associate Dean at the University of Oklahoma in the United States. A former newspaper copy editor, he is the author of Excellence in Online Journalism: Exploring Current Practices in an Evolving Environ- ment and The Ethics of the Story: Using Narrative Techniques Responsibly in Journalism .

  • Diagnosis Nabj: a Preliminary Study of a Post-Civil Rights Organization
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository DIAGNOSIS NABJ: A PRELIMINARY STUDY OF A POST-CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATION BY LETRELL DESHAN CRITTENDEN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor John Nerone, Chair Associate Professor Christopher Benson Associate Professor William Berry Associate Professor Clarence Lang, University of Kansas ABSTRACT This critical study interrogates the history of the National Association of Black Journalists, the nation’s oldest and largest advocacy organization for reporters of color. Founded in 1975, NABJ represents the quintessential post-Civil Rights organization, in that it was established following the end of the struggle for freedom rights. This piece argues that NABJ, like many other advocacy organizations, has succumbed to incorporation. Once a fierce critic of institutional racism inside and outside the newsroom, NABJ has slowly narrowed its advocacy focus to the issue of newsroom diversity. In doing so, NABJ, this piece argues, has rendered itself useless to the larger black public sphere, serving only the needs of middle-class African Americans seeking jobs within the mainstream press. Moreover, as the organization has aged, NABJ has taken an increasing amount of money from the very news organizations it seeks to critique. Additionally, this study introduces a specific method of inquiry known as diagnostic journalism. Inspired in part by the television show, House MD, diagnostic journalism emphasizes historiography, participant observation and autoethnography in lieu of interviewing.
